The Nauticast™-B Automatic Identification System from ACR Electronics is a Class B transponder that is designed to bring you the best in bridge electronics. The Nauticast™-B offers a great value and an excellent feature set.
The Nauticast™-B is a black box solution that comes to you as a compact, all-in-one kit, providing you with space savings and simplicity. The kit includes both VHF and GPS antennas and ACR’s Link2AIS™ Software. The Link2AIS™ Software may be installed on an onboard PC, or third party software that is AIS-capable may be used. The Nauticast™-B also can be interfaced to chart plotters/Multi Functional Displays (MFDs) which display targets.
The transponder has an external Safety Related Message (SRM) feature, with user configurable messages. The transponder can be mounted below deck for added convenience.
AIS is an acronym for Automation Identification System. AIS increases navigational domain awareness by transmitting vessel identification, position, course, and speed to other AIS equipped vessels and base stations. This helps reduce the difficulty of identifying ships when not in sight and understanding their navigational intentions.
